When i first got in shape it was just after my daughter was born and i was following the old BWF routine and your vids/yoga - like you i was spreading my workouts throughout the day whenever i had 5 minutes. It ended up allowing me to workout consistently, without ever having to dedicate much time to any single workout session. I never felt like I "missed" workouts, cos i was doing piecemeal workouts every day.
glad you're still consistent after so many years! you've been a great inspiration and encouragement to me and my fitness journey. thank you Antranik!!!
Focusing on fitness, health and longevity will always be my main goals… and sharing them with others is my passion, so this space lends itself perfectly for helping others!
It really is! Glad to see someone recognizing that! It’s a shame I didn’t know about this game when I was younger, it should be sooo much more popular than most other sports IMO!
Thanks man, practicality and sustainability trumps optimal. You could have the best program ever made by an Olympian level gymnastics coach but if it's not something you could adhere to, it's not really the best! What's the best is what works for your time schedule.
congrats on getting riped while being a dad 🎉🎉 btw do you do other exercises for ur upper body (dips, rows, core, ...) or only chins and pikes? im curious keep up the good work, im actually looking forward to more exercise tutorials made by u ❤❤
Hy Antranik! I've been feeding on your pragmatic and bs free content for years, and this video made me even much "closer" to your experience. I have 2 kids (3 and 1 y.o.) and I started to sleep more than 1,5/2 hours straight in the last month, so I've been struggling with fatigue and accumulate stress for some time... I always tried to find some time for fitness (at least 2 full sessions per week), but it was not easy, especially because when you're tired your own excuses just mount up and it becomes a psychological war as well... thank you so much for the expertise and experience you share, you really are a role model for me
Hi there Nicola! (My sons name is Nikola btw!)... the lack of sleep is so rough... being a parent to 2 young kids sound extra-exhausting, so I understand the fatigue accumulation must be nuts. If you can work in shifts with your wife and when it's not your turn, wear ear plugs (and/or just sleep on the couch separately), it can help a lot for you to catch up on sleep. I remember in the first month my son was born, I felt the MOST RAGGED i've ever felt in my life and it was impossible to even think about working out, but even if I did then randomly, it really helped. Anyway, we will always have excuses but forcing yourself to have those 2 sessions helps you keep sane I'm 100% sure. I'm so glad this video resonated with you and I don't know when my next dad-specific video will be but I'm glad you appreciate it!
@@AntranikDotOrg Nikola is the best name, from the Greek "to win" and "people": it can mean "winner among your people" or (my favourite) "winner FOR your people"... Great choice! Thank you for the tips about sleep, I already tried them and they worked until we had our second baby, when it was difficult to work in shifts... The thing that was finally revolutionary for us was a "bland" sleep training for both of them, that worked wonders!
I haven't watched a vid in a minute, and forgot how slowly and deliberately you speak. Played this on 2x speed, and it was still very easy to understand, and keep up with everything you said lol
I love the speed up feature! I use it all the time as well when watching most others. Usually 1.25-1.5x… but for me I can easily see 2x being the norm 🤣 I even edit my videos initially at 2x speed.

@@AntranikDotOrg for 2. great job you’re doing! going 39 next year and will stay fit and get fitter as before. what would you recommend in time scheduling with child? 1. it holds even on slippery doorframes?
@@setori8889 Nice, i was doing weighted chins today and he was on the high-chair eating, and he looked back and started smiling so much... cause he does them too!

Piecemeal workouts! That’s the best phrase… that’s exactly it, fit in short sessions here and there and you’ll be miles ahead of the average joe!

Welcome back!!! I'm really looking forward to more of your inspirational and educational videos. And your baby is adorable!!!
Thank you RK!
Congratulations on becoming a father Antranik! Also great to know you’ve been playing ultimate frisbee, it is so fun!
It really is! Glad to see someone recognizing that! It’s a shame I didn’t know about this game when I was younger, it should be sooo much more popular than most other sports IMO!
What a great story! Thanks for the tips. I was doing PIKE pushups all wrong. Also the frisbee game, great idea.
Thank you Ronaldo!!!
Strong work, my brother! Thanks for all the practical info, as always.
You da best Thomas!
I really like your honest approach on strenght training!

With a 3 and 5yr old. Your advice is so approachable for all the dad bods. Thanks for the motivation to fit it in and use it as a brain break.
That's so great to hear. I really hope it was inspiring to share my story like this.
Always good to see a realistic staying fit video, hope you get some rest soon 😅
Me too! Though I must say there’s been a shift in the past month where it’s getting easier, phew!!!
Redefine the dad bod! Always an inspiration, Antranik!
I like that! Could be a thumbnail text! “Redefining the dad bod” 😇

No excuses people! Look how Antranik kept a healthy lifestyle, despite how busy he was!
Thanks man!
